The tenant said that he could feel the home shift and heard a loud crack as the storm hit overnight.
A Laurel Canyon resident was displaced by Thursday's powerful storm, when his home shifted off of its foundation, creating a dangerous predicament as the home sits atop a steep cliff.
He said that they could hear the house pop overnight, even feeling the force of the event, but were completely unaware of the damage until Thursday morning. Video of the home shows noticeable damage to the structure, which now appears to be lopsided after a powerful storm doused the entire Southland.
Charnoski's video shows him walking around the perimeter of the home, noting each broken barrier and wall impacted by the shift of the land. Even so, neither the city nor Charnoski's landlord have offered assistance to the couple, despite the obvious danger and damage to their living situation.
